Expanding its beauty portfolio, Dyson launches its first-ever wet line styling products, the Dyson Chitosan™ Pre-Style Cream and the Dyson Chitosan™ Post-Style Serum. Powered by chitosan— a complex macromolecule derived from oyster mushrooms— and engineered with Dyson Triodetic™ technology, this range promises flexible, all-day hold with natural movement and shine.
The move into formulations represents a new frontier for Dyson, with a move into ingredient research.
Chitosan is a molecule those in the beauty community may not be familiar with. Those who are familiar are likely to have heard of the shellfish derivative, used as a supplement or in some packaging solutions. Through research, Dyson sourced a version of chitosan from oyster mushrooms. Chitosan is a complex macromolecule that is found in the cell walls of the mushroom. Delicate yet strong, it's what gives the fungi its shape and provides the basis of Dyson's flexible hold. It's this hero ingredient that gives the Dyson Chitosan™ range its name.
Kathleen Pierce, President of Beauty at Dyson, "Our engineers have rigorously tested to find the optimum percentage of chitosan for all-day, flexible hold, while maintaining natural movement."
Dyson's new styling products are designed to work seamlessly with Dyson's hair tools. The pre-style cream primes and conditions hair, reducing frizz and enhancing shine, while the post-style serum locks in styles with hydration and a protective shield against humidity.
- With four varieties, each formulation is tailored for different hair types, incorporating specific ingredients such as grape seed oil and argan oil to meet various conditioning needs. The packaging is engineered with a precision applicator that dispenses a consistent amount of product, minimizing waste and ensuring accurate application. The product offers refillable bottles and recyclable refill cartridges that underscore Dyson's commitment to sustainability.
